Chapter 4: The Allure of Martial Arts

  Lin Hui sat in the car with a great mood, thinking of Wu Mengqi's slightly stunned and then laughing expression earlier, Lin Hui also had a faint smile on his face.

  In his mind, Wu Mengui's figure involuntarily emerged, with her stunning face, tall and slender physique, and perfectly curved lines. Lin Hui couldn't help but admit that the other person's charm was indeed great, if he didn't have to rush for the bus, he really wanted to stay a little longer, even though he also knew that they wouldn't have any further interactions in the future.

  Lin Hui didn't think about it anymore, for him Wu Mengqi was just an unexpected episode in his life.

  Looking out the window, Lin Hui seemed a bit distracted. The things that happened to him were enough to be unbelievable, but this was indeed the reality in front of him. Moreover, the continuous events that had occurred before made Lin Hui realize that he had obviously underestimated the wonder of merging with the other's soul.

  Although Lin Hui has now merged the other party's soul memory, it is obviously incomplete. Most of the memory intervals are blank and disjointed. Previously, he had no memories of 'stealing things' in his mind, but after seeing a pickpocket steal something, that memory seemed to be awakened.

  Ling Tian was raised by a gang leader from a young age and grew up in the underworld. At a very young age, he was forced to learn thieving skills and various survival techniques by the gang, with the purpose of making money for them. It wasn't until he was 14 years old that Ling Tian managed to break free from their control.

  There were scenes of Ling Tian practicing thievery as a child, like slides appearing in his mind, which was the memory that had just been awakened.

  Although he has not fully mastered Ling Tian's thieving skills at present, Lin Hui feels that as long as he undergoes a certain period of specific practice, he will be able to approach or even reach Ling Tian's level, and that level is absolutely the top existence in this world.

  All the way, Lin Hui's mind was preoccupied with her own thoughts.

  It was almost six thirty when he returned to school. As he walked into the school, Lin Hui suddenly had a different feeling in his heart. Although it had only been a few days since he left, now looking at this campus felt somewhat different.

  Walking on the school road, Lin Hui suddenly felt that this school was quite beautiful, and he didn't know what was going on.

  In fact, Lin Hui didn't have time to appreciate the scenery of the school in the past. Tuition and living expenses were like a heavy stone pressing on his heart, although on the surface it seemed like nothing, but Lin Hui had an invisible pressure in his heart.

  Others have family background and connections, but he doesn't, so he can't afford to slack off. In order to let his parents live a good life and to prove himself, he dares not relax and has no time to relax.

  Only fight!

  After entering university, Lin Hui had almost no time for entertainment and relaxation for over a year. Not only did he have to complete his studies, but he also had to use his spare time to earn his tuition fees and living expenses. His younger sister was still in high school, and he didn't want to add any more burden to his family.

  It can be said that this is Lin Hui's first truly relaxed and enjoyable appreciation of her school since entering university.

  And now, possibly due to the fusion of Ling Tian's soul, Lin Hui's inner heart has undergone a significant transformation. At least in his subconscious mind, tuition fees and living expenses are no longer an obstacle for him.

  Lin Hui was poor in the past, but he had never lacked confidence. At this time, that confidence became even stronger because of Ling Tian's soul.

  Lin Hui walked up to the dormitory door and unlocked it with her key. To her surprise, all three of her roommates were inside.

  As soon as they saw Lin Hui, the three people's eyes all turned over at once.

  "Wow, you actually came back!" Lin Hui had just walked in when Yan Ke came over and shouted loudly, "You didn't come back, that's fine, but to even turn off your phone!"

  "It's good that you called back yesterday, otherwise we would have reported to the police." Ye Jinghao said with a face of discontent, Lin Hui had mysteriously disappeared for two days and his phone was unreachable, which really worried them for a long time.

  "Is everything okay?" Li Lifeng, who was normally introverted, walked over and asked, his face clearly showing concern.

  Feeling the genuine concern of her three roommates, Lin Hui's heart couldn't help but flow with a warm current.

  "Stop looking at me like that, I know I was wrong." Lin Hui said with a smile. He remembered the kindness others had shown him in his heart. For more than a year since entering university, the three brothers in his dormitory had quietly helped him a lot. His energy was limited after all, he not only had to study but also go out to work part-time.

  "Stop smiling and confess honestly, if you don't give a satisfactory reason, you'll see what happens." Ye Jinghao said with a smirk.

  "Exactly, hurry up and confess." Yan Ke also immediately echoed, "Won't be that you were tied back home by some beauty?"

  Lin Hui looked at Yan Ke with disdain. This kid was born to be a philanderer, and if he didn't talk about women, he would feel uncomfortable all over.

  Under the threatening gaze of three people, Lin Hui recounted the events of the past few days with a very helpless expression, of course, omitting the part about the soul, which was unbelievable and might have led others to think he had gone crazy.

  "Lin Hui, are you okay now?" Upon hearing that Lin Hui was hit by a car, the three people's faces changed instantly, but seeing that Lin Hui was still fine, they all let out a slight sigh of relief.

  "Does it look like I have something on my mind?" Lin Hui said.

  "It seems like nothing's wrong, but you're really stupid, getting hit and hospitalized, yet you only got 2,000 yuan from the other party. How can that be enough? It should be at least tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands." Just thinking about Lin Hui only asking for 2,000 yuan made Yan Ke uncomfortable. The compensation for being hit shouldn't be so cheap, and it sounds like the other party isn't short on money anyway.

  Lin Hui didn't respond anymore, he knew the real situation best in his heart.

  After nearly twenty minutes, Lin Hui finally answered several people's questions.

  "You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Lin Hui said, looking at several people.

  "We're all waiting for you, but Jinghao just got back too, and I don't know what this kid is busy with every day." Yan Ke said.

  Lin Hui smiled, Ye Jinghao was not busy, it would be strange. Before the 11th, the student union had just finished its handover, relying on his excellent ability and performance, Ye Jinghao is now the president of the student union, how could he not be busy?

  "Come on, I'll treat you today, don't fight with me anymore." Lin Hui said with a smile. He had treated them before, but compared to the three of them, he was the least likely to do so. It wasn't that he didn't want to treat them, it's just that they wouldn't let him.

  Strictly speaking, haha, suddenly said, "Rob a fart, you just earned two thousand yuan."

  This time, Ye Jinghao and Li Lifeng did not object either.

  A few minutes later, the four of them headed directly to Chihe Street outside the school, where they usually had dinner gatherings at restaurants on this street.

  Maybe it was because of a change in mindset, but Lin Hui enjoyed this meal more than usual.

  But things on this street outside school have always been cheap, and even if I arrived late, it only cost more than 100 points.

  After dinner, several people went back to their dormitory directly.

  "Hey, have you guys noticed that this kid seems to have changed a bit?" Ye Jinghao said to the two people as he saw Lin Hui walk into the bathroom.

  Ye Jinghao's words made Yan Ke and Li Lifeng reveal the same expression, then nodded.

  "I didn't think you'd have this feeling too, I thought it was just me who felt wrong," Yan Ke said, "The feeling is different, but I just can't put my finger on what's different..."

  Ye Jinghao nodded in agreement with Yan Ke's point of view.

  At eleven o'clock at night, Lin Hui went to bed. He simply didn't have a bit of sleepiness.

  At this time, he was thinking of one thing. The Xuanwu Continent is very similar to the world in Chinese martial arts novels, but the Xuanwu Continent attaches more importance to martial arts. This is exactly what Lin Hui is thinking about now.

  Martial arts, for a man, have an absolutely huge attraction, and Lin Hui is no exception.

  According to Ling Tian's memory, the mental methods on the Xuanwu continent he simply had no way to cultivate, because wanting to cultivate mental methods must enter the practicing Qi boundary, after having the feeling of Qi can practice mental methods.

  That is to say, the Qi Refining Realm is just a foundation. And because there is no Spiritual Energy on Earth like there is on the Xuanwu Continent, it's fundamentally impossible to enter the Qi Refining Realm.

  If he didn't enter the state of practicing internal energy, those memories about martial arts would become useless. If he didn't know it was a pity, but now that he clearly possessed the martial arts mental method, yet couldn't practice, this was undoubtedly a kind of torment.

  For the Xuanwu Continent, entering the Qi Refining Realm is an extremely simple matter. With a compatible heart method and innate talent, it only takes a few days to enter, while ordinary people take about a week at most, and even the worst won't exceed ten days.

  And this now seems to have become an insurmountable barrier for Lin Hui.

  Lin Hui was not resigned to his fate, he didn't believe there wasn't another way. Lying in bed, because he hadn't fully merged with Ling Tian's memories, Lin Hui had to search for himself, constantly searching through Ling Tian's memories, trying to find a solution.

  Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, but Lin Hui didn't gain much.

  Just when Lin Hui was about to give up, his eyes suddenly lit up. In Ling Tian's memory, there was another way to enter the Qi Refining Realm, a method that was much slower than the usual way of absorbing spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so it had been gradually forgotten and hardly anyone used it anymore. This was still something Ling Tian had accidentally seen in an ancient book during his three years as an assassin.

  Suddenly, the body's potential is fully utilized in conjunction with the heart method, entering the realm of practicing Qi.

  That is to say, using a method that breaks through the limits of human physical energy to enter the state of practicing Qi. And this is now a condition that Lin Hui can have.

  Although in memory, and did not know how long it would take to enter the so-called Qigong state, but for Lin Hui, this was already a great news.

  Lin Hui's mind involuntarily conjured up the cultivation method of his past life, the Xuan Tian Heart Method, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
